About beach holidays in Qatar
According to tourists, a beach holiday in Qatar is beautiful not only in the summer. Excellent quality of service, modern comfortable hotels, fabulous surrounding nature (especially from March to May and from September to January) - this is Qatar.

About nature
In hotels with a beautifully landscaped oasis and excellent service, you spend your holidays in Qatar. Reviews of tourists most often talk about living conditions. However, the landscapes of Qatar are not particularly attractive and bright. The relief of the northern part of the country is represented by a low sandy plain, covered with moving dunes. The central part of the territory is a rocky desert covered with pebble, and in some places with salt marshes. The southern part of the state is sandy high hills.
The peninsula is very poor in water, there are oases, but they are small and rare. With all this, the nature of Qatar is unique.
